Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu has announced significant investments by Shreeja Milk Producer Organisation and Mother Dairy in Kuppam, Chittoor district, as part of the state’s ‘Swarna Andhra’ vision. Shreeja plans to establish a dairy and animal feed processing unit, while Mother Dairy will set up a fruit pulp processing facility. These projects are expected to create approximately 8,000 jobs and strengthen the rural economy by directly sourcing milk and horticultural produce from local farmers. The state government has allocated land for these ventures under an agreement with the Kuppam Area Development Authority (KADA). Both companies have been encouraged to complete their projects within 15 to 18 months to ensure timely benefits to the community.
